Can't see the point if there's no extra tracks or outtakes? By the very nature of it's length it was always spread across two LP's but it used to retail for a much more competitive price. I'm sure I saw it for £19. 99 a few years ago. Perhaps it's been re-mastered?

This album is unique in that it's the only Bob Dylan album which has undergone a track change. This is because The Groom's Still Waiting At The Altar, a non-album 7" single B-side, was added to later releases of vinyl albums and the CD release.

First vinyl release, August 12 1981:

Later vinyl release, late 1981 (in the USA only):

The rest of the world had to wait for the cd release...

Yeah, but ... this was no anniversary celebration reissue, rather a record co oh cripes, we might sell more if we include the moderately successful single track re-boot. Innit.

I guess that makes the original Shot Of Love more collectable than the later release - a case where "Less is more" is actually true, in the sense that it's a dismal album anyway, so the quicker it is over the better.

Ah, c´mon, Shot of love ain´t that bad. Yes, it had some sub par stuff, I would say mostly Lenny Bruce, which is a nice tribute, but one of his worst songs.But Heart of mine, Property of Jesus, Watered down love, In the summer time and Every grain of sand make the record more than worth one´s money to me
